  5. Wow Amanda these all look wonderful! It’s rare for me to want to make every recipe in a group but dang girl I have set a challenge to do just that with all of these. I’m going start with the pumpkin pancakes this weekend because I have all the ingredients. Plus it gives me an excuse to buy a good quality Grade A maple syrup. Only the best recipes deserve that!
    So Happy Fall! My favorite season! Just wish I didn’t look like an axe murderer in my flannel shorts and boots lol.
